The Red Shirts 'Maruah' rally, much ado over nothing?

I am trying hard to look at the positive side of things especially with the dawn of the Sept 16 rally by the Red Shirts. I may be wrong, but do correct me if I am, that nothing will come out of the Sept 16 gathering.

Basically, I look at it as nothing more than a 'kiasu' syndrome that they just simply want to outbeat Bersih 4.0 in numbers more than a 'save the Malay maruah' idea. If it was the latter, they should actually train the barrel of their guns at Najib because this fella is currently doing a good job in the 'maruah' area.

As much as a lot of sabre rattling have been going on for almost a week now, it will continue to be just that ..... more sabre rattling. The reasons being ...

1. If they had intended to start a riot and cause harm to members of the public, they would not have openly announce their intentions, and days ahead too.

2. By rioting, they may cause an international incident which Najib can ill afford. Would they know the difference between a Japanese, PRC Chinese, Korean, Taiwanese, Vietnamese, Thai, Filipino Chinese, Hongkies to a local Chinese? If one of them is affected, especially those from the PRC, the roof will just cave in onto these morons.

3. The riot would also cause more foreign investors to pull out of the country and invest elsewhere. Already, there are signs that many such companies have left Malaysia. How much more is the govt prepared to lose.

4. The ringgit is now at RM4.36 level. Any incident could cause the ringgit to drop sharply to even RM5.00 which is not impossible.

5. The Red Shirt sabre rattling, as far as I can see, is to send out a warning to Bersih 2.0 not to organise further rallies, in which Bersih 5.0 was talked about should Najib refused to step down.

6. Many Malays working in Chinese companies may even lose their jobs which at the moment is most unlikely. But would the Red Shirts want to take a chance?

7. Unlike May 13 (in which I was nearly killed, not by the Malays, but by the Chinese, but saved by the Malays), today's situation is a whole lot different as it involves a sizeable chunk of the Malay population on the side of right.

8. Unlike 1969, we are now globally connected, and you know what that means

If at all Najib does not want to step down due to the 1MDB scandal, we citizens can do our part by coming out in full force for GE14 to exercise our rights.

Let the red shirts rally all they want.If they can better the numbers of Bersih 4,so much the better.Maybe they will get 40k of red shirts or maybe only 4k.Let these suckers show off their silat skills and create chaos at the same time.See what good these good for nothing brainless suckers and ass lickers can achieve that the 500k Bersih 4 crowd cannot achieve.In the end all these protesting suckers will be discarded like garbage when they are no longer of any political use.I say let they go fuck themselves left,right,center and belakang.

Geronimo,if PKR have their ways,the opposition will soon become a pact of four strange bedfellows.Also known in the sex circles as foursome.These fucking opposition leaders are behaving like headless chickens,jumping everywhere and getting to nowhere.A real fucking letdown to their supporters.These leaders are now showing their real hypocritical faces and are turning themselves into garbage bound vegetables.With these useless creeps as leaders of the opposition,come GE14 Najib will make mincemeat out of them.

About Me

Geronimo, the great Apache chief,once said that there should be no fences surrounding anyone but be allowed to pursue his own sense of happiness. However, I do not think this is happening in Malaysia as the government continue to threaten its populace with the archaic draconian law such as the Internal Security Act; the University and College Act and the Printing and Publication Act. We are not free. I am but just another Malaysian who believes strongly in the unity of all its races and hence, my strong conviction of the Malaysian first, Malaysian last belief.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed --- "We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal." I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time; That this is the Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the Earth.

How abominably unjust to persecute a man for such an airy trifle as that. I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

In Germany the Nazis came first for the Communists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for me, and by that time there was no one left to speak up.

Joseph Goebbels

Never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.

If our Malay brethren and sisters could show sympathy for Teoh Beng Hock, why can't Chua Soi Lek do the same by supporting the setting up of a RCI?
